Any one have 10 of these clips? Or a source?
Their used to hold the headliner brackets onto the roof of a 66 Pontiac. Thanks, Bob

Bob, I believe the proper spelling for the link is restorationspecialties.com. I tried clicking on the original link and came up with a dead end. I will be watching this because I also have been trying to locate these clips.
Thanks for the link Terrry. Rick |

No one that I am aware of re-pops those little buggers.
I ended up securing good used from salvage & some from members here. Last time I needed more I used a .5" self-tap wide head screw and no one will ever know/see.

I found clips that will work from a boating interior maker/installer.
They were shaped the same but the material was round like wire versus the flat material. Also behind the headliner so not visible.

Well I'm to the point of assembly and I never found a clip that would replace the one in the picture.
Anyone happen to have 7 of these clips? They are used to hold the brackets to the body that keep the cloth headliner in place on a 66 A-Body. The source listed, did not carry these, Bob

Short self tapping screws will do a better job holding it and as mentioned, will never be seen.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
